Drive to the end of Onepoto Road where there is a large car park, also public toilets.
From here you can take a short - or long walk - on a good track - first alongside some of the boat sheds and then the harbour itself. This walk is good any time of day, especially when blowing a strong Northerly...

The Harbour changes its outlook many times over the days and months and not one day is better than the other. Whether it is raining, windy or sunny it is always a lovely place to walk around and going along the walk past the Onepoto Boatsheds you see swans, Canadian Geese and other bird-life.

There are walkways and cycling tracks around a good part of the Harbour, and often there are boating events to be enjoyed - either as a spectator or participant. If you enjoy mini-putt there...
